major addition to my vb
 

ok i wish to integrate TNG, its a genealogy app.

My goal is to have that app work pretty much as it does now but use vb for user login at minimum and permission to access through a single sign on.

be modular so vb can be easily upgraded as new versions come out.

as i have never done anything of this scale i need a little direction.

the app contains 32 tables.

should i just add the tables to the same data base as VB??

is there something specific i can look at to understand

1) how I can use the vb login to access this other app
2) how vb uses permissions to allow access to certain things and not others?

what else should i be aware of as i make this attempt??

thanks to all those that have the patients to assist me

A good place to start is the Articles section, as you will find articles relating to how permissions work in vBulletin, etc.

I would be interested with your progress on this as I am attempting the very same thing. Thus far, I've had very little luck. It seems there are plugins available for many CMS's out there, but nothing for vBulletin or even PHPBB. If there is anyone out there that has worked on this type of thing (single sign-on) previously, any help would be greatly appreciated.
